both of them ceased to exist once they merged to become the cw and what was once in UPN's spot was taken up by a local affiliate network that just airs reruns of old shows and random movies

The CW is basically showing the same shitty stuff either channel showed anyway, so there really isn't anything to miss.

Asks if anyone misses old shows.
Shits on a network that airs old shows.

Yes! They had a lot of shows I really enjoyed.

Some of my favorites:
Unhappily Ever After (my favorite show of all time)
Special Unit 2
Off Centre
Nikki
Seven Days
Secret Agent Man
Star Trek Voyager
Grosse Pointe

CW seems to just be garbage.

Pretty much this, since it's not like they so much went away as they got new names. Granted, WB seemed better than CW but still...

I'd say the CW is more or less the same as the WB. The few types of shows WB had that CW doesn't mostly went away because those shows got cancelled/just faded away. But in a universe where both the WB and UPN had stuck around, the WB there would probably look a lot like the CW we have here.

If anything, UPN is the channel that lost its identity a bit more, but honestly, it had less identity to lose in the first place. A lot of its core was basically just black-oriented sitcoms (which you can absolutely find elsewhere these days) and Star Trek (which mostly disappeared less because UPN went away and more because the audience was absolutely burnt out on Star Trek - and reruns of the worthwhile older shows are still available on other channels, while the new shows are on CBS' streaming service, so they likely wouldn't have been on a hypothetical modern UPN anyway).

The only other shows UPN really had were syndicated shows, and most of those got picked up by other channels, including the stop-gap channels like MyNetworkTV (which took UPN's spot in the NYC area).

Honestly, in the NYC area at least, channel 9 (formerly UPN, currently My9) and channel 11 (formerly the WB, currently the CW) feel like they're exactly the same channels they used to be, just 12 years older.
